Yes. It says you are a LIAR, mouthing the words of your father the
Prince of Lies.

I have a few myself.

Actually they can, but it remains irrelevant to the fact that Jut(e)
stems from Old Norse Jot.

One problem with this folktale is that the Hebrew alphabet letter
corresponding to j/y has no resemblance to the Roman letter.
The point is that your fairy tale source says that Jute came from
Jews. You want to use his version of the story, but reject the parts
that don't fit your racist agenda. I am perfectly aware that Jutland
has nothing to do with Jews.

Around 7,000 Jews.
(And 120,000 Moslems, per Britannica).

Carbon dating has nothing to do with it. The Assyrians were part of
*recorded* history. We know when they ruled and conquered based on
comparisons of names, dates and calendars in their documents with the
same names in the documents of other civilizations.

The lack of language similarity, which your phony name soundalikes
don't begin to touch.
Genetics that shows little relationship between them and other Semitic
peoples.

You are the only one from a different plane. You are subhuman by
choice.
